Alabama’s 2026 youth lieutenant governor is Addison Pledger, a 17-year-old senior at Spain Park High School. Addison shares that she has always had a passion for history and politics and aims to become a civil rights lawyer. After graduation, Addison plans to continue her education at the University of Alabama.
As lieutenant governor, Pledger’s goal has been to give others the experience and opportunity to participate in the Alabama Youth in Government program. She remembers 2023 Youth Governor Camilla Lopez visiting her class during her freshman year of high school, inspiring her to become a part of this program and wants to make the same effort for others.
